Cautionary Statement

This press
release contains forward-looking statements concerning Advanced Micro Devices,
Inc. (AMD) including the features, functionality, availability, timing and
expected benefits of Ryzen™ PRO-based products, which are made pursuant to the
Safe Harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements are commonly identified by words such as
"would," "intends," "believes,"
"expects," "may," "will," "should,"
"seeks," "intends," "plans," "pro
forma," "estimates," "anticipates," or the negative of
these words and phrases, other variations of these words and phrases or
comparable terminology. Investors are cautioned that the forward- looking
statements in this document are based on current beliefs, assumptions and
expectations, speak only as of the dateof this document and involve risks and
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from current
expectations. Such statements are subject to certain known and unknown risks
and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and generally beyond
AMD's control, that could cause actual results and other future events to
differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, the
forward-looking information and statements. Material factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, without
limitation, the following: Intel Corporation’s dominance of the microprocessor
market and its aggressive business practices may limit AMD’s ability to compete
effectively; AMD has a wafer supply agreement with GF with obligations to
purchase all of its microprocessor and APU product requirements, and a certain
portion of its GPU product requirements, from GLOBALFOUNDRIES Inc. (GF) with limited
exceptions. If GF

is not able
to satisfy AMD’s manufacturing requirements, its business could be adversely
impacted; AMD relies on third parties to manufacture its products, and if they
are unable to do so on a timely basis in sufficient quantities and using
competitive technologies, AMD’s business could be materially adversely
affected; failure to achieve expected manufacturing yields for AMD’s products
could negatively impact its financial results; the success of AMD’s

business is
dependent upon its ability to introduce products on a timely basis with
features and performance levels that provide value to its customers while
supporting and coinciding with significant industry transitions; if AMD cannot
generate sufficient revenue and operating cash flow or obtain external
financing, it may face a cash shortfall and be unable to make all of its
planned investments in research and development or other strategic

investments;
the loss of a significant customer may have a material adverse effect on AMD; AMD’s
receipt of revenue from its semi-custom SoC products is dependent upon its
technology being designed into third-party products and the success of those
products; global economic uncertainty may adversely impact AMD’s business and
operating results; the markets in which AMD’s products are sold are highly
competitive; AMD may not be able

to generate
sufficient cash to service its debt obligations or meet its working capital
requirements; AMD has a large amount of indebtedness which could adversely
affect its financial position and prevent it from implementing its strategy or
fulfilling its contractual obligations; the agreements governing AMD’s notes
and the Secured Revolving Line of Credit impose restrictions on AMD that may
adversely affect its ability to operate its business; AMD's

issuance to
West Coast Hitech L.P. (WCH) of warrants to purchase 75 million shares of its
common stock, if and when exercised, will dilute the ownership interests of its
existing stockholders, and the conversion of the 2.125% Convertible Senior
Notes due 2026 may dilute the ownership interest of its existing stockholders,
or may otherwise depress the price of its common stock; uncertainties involving
the ordering and shipment of AMD’s products

could
materially adversely affect it; the demand for AMD’s products depends in part
on the market conditions in the industries into which they are sold.
Fluctuations in demand for AMD’s products or a market decline in any of these
industries could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations;
AMD’s ability to design and introduce new products in a timely manner is
dependent upon third-party intellectual property; AMD depends on third-

party
companies for the design, manufacture and supply of motherboards, software and
other computer platform components to support its business; if AMD loses
Microsoft Corporation’s support for its products or other software vendors do
not design and develop software to run on AMD’s products, its ability to sell
its products could be materially adversely affected; and AMD’s reliance on
third- party distributors and AIB partners subjects it to

certain
risks. Investors are urged to review in detail the risks and uncertainties in
AMD's Securities and Exchange Commission filings, including but not limited to
AMD's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended April 1, 2017.
